Now if I am as old and as wise as the universe
Then why is it that we hide?
Is it sin, or curse?
Hard to believe it could be anything worse
What could be worse?
I constantly come in and out of my mind with you sir
The tables have turned once again, now this line is at hand
Can't put my finger on it
Keep scraping my mind for it
But, then again, What could be worse?
My mind's alfight
What could be worse?

Simple Facts

She is a person with a precise perception of how things are and aught to be
"Everything is in the mind", she said, and by gosh!
How could I have foreseen this moment when I would be set free?
Uncontrollable laughter enraptures me in momentous bliss
A smile I never thought I'd feel take shape again
Can't take my mind off of this, no, can't pull away from this simple fact
It's the price we pay when we give ourselves away
A leap of faith can only be broken by feathers or rain
Mmhmm
A heart of stone to a heart of gold and back again, well truth be told it's amazing how things can change
Your mind leaves the body
You are infinite awareness
In the blink of an eye you're awake again, or so it seems
So if we are the creator and the creator is in us, then we've been here before merely stardust
Oh! and I can't take my mind off of this simple fact
It's the price we pay when we give ourselves away
A leap of faith can only be broken by feathers or rain
Mmhmm

There is no other way for me to explain what I saw
It came down from above
Couldn't tell you how
Light spilled out
A hand stretched out
They were flying...flying...
And they said, "Patience and good will towards others will get you anywhere you want to be"
A wave of emotion washed over me
Pulled out my soul
Poured it into a bowl
And there in the reflection I saw my entirety
My mind split open
Believe me
Patience and good will towards others will get you anywhere you want to be
Do you dare?
With a sound like thunder they graced me with their song
Replacing my inhibitions with a notion of what must come
Focus your energies on creation
Choose compassion over fear and soon you'll be flying...flying...believe me
Patience and good will towards others will get you anywhere you want to be

Shut Up and Smoke This

There was a boy who could not hold a friend without wondering what would be said
The morning sun would come and still he lay in bed, just wondering, "Should I be dead?
'If life's so beautiful, why would I still choose my bed?
If God's so wonderful, why would he mess with my head?"
One day that boy, he called his closest friend
Saying, "Listen man, forget what I said"
He said. "I can't keep on hiding, don't want to pretend, I mean it man
I'd rather be dead
If life's so beautiful, why would I want to be dead?
If God's so sensible, why would he fuck with my head?"
And now that friend looked down his sweaty hand
Wondering, "Could this be the end?
Could I be losing my one true friend?"
But then he thought, "He called me instead!
Life is beautiful
You'd know if you got out of bed
There is no God anyhow
It's all in your head!"

Forget The Time

I am a pebble on this Cape of Fear
A cosmic contemplation coming through so clear here
The surf sucks out from underneath my toes
A smile stretches ear to ear, yet, no one knows that today I will drown in this overwhelming sensation I've found
Life goes on without me
I'm free
Breath the air
Always be aware
Calm down
For I won't be around too long
Trust the heart
Never did me wrong
Close my eyes and forget the time
Now I come back and everything's the same
Except I can see the superficial games we play
For shame
But, you know, it doesn't have to be this way
No
At the end of the day what matters most is to love yourself and the people of your home
Now let's think on this, well, what is home?
A wooden box or this world we know?
We're all composed of life's great song
What you do to him you do to her as well
Breath the air
Always be aware
Calm down
FOr you won't be around too long
Trust the heart
Never do you wrong
Close your eyes and forget the time

Oh Danny Boy
You can heal me when I'm dying
You can feel me when I'm crying
Well, I'm crying now
I have to say, I'm quite a lucky man to call you my best friend
Yes, I'm a lucky man
You are the stars on my darkest nights
Never once did you stray or shy away
We found love and we found your voice
Now your soul can fly
Too many times was I afraid you were lying
Let my pride say you weren't trying
But you're trying
So, I have to say now I understand why you let me fall
Now I understand
You are the stars on my darkest nights
Never once did you stray or shy away
We found love and we found your voice
Now your soul can fly
Danny Boy you can fly on forever
Oh Danny Boy
You have healed me
Now I'm trying
You have freed me and I'm trying
Just look...
Now we're flying

The Question

My dear friend Adelaide has shown me so much more than I could ask for
Who could ask for more?
I feel the spin
I know my name
I look to him
Can he say the same?
Shall I show him the way?
Sun beat down upon me
Burn me in your love
Rain come down around me
Bathing
Releasing pain
Stressing the unknown veils your eyes from sights being shown
Would you like to know?
Well, sit and listen
Do you hear your name?
A generation lost in space?
There is no race
Only survival
All who wander are not lost
It's our time to question and awaken
And fondly embrace
Sun beat down upon me
Burn me in your love
Rain come down around me
Bathing
Releasing pain
Do you get that feeling in your mind life you've been sleeping all your life?
The question is,
Will you open your eye?
